Atkinson's Mill, 9/20/19

Debbie and I headed over to Atkinson's Millpond today. We hadn't been since sometime last year, and had forgotten how beautiful this place is!! Lots of cover, sheer banks, and a long head / feeder. Wow, you can get close to 2 miles up in there. Lots of structure, laydowns, overhangs, and shade. About 30 minutes in, Debbie hit a bass that was a monster!! She fought her a while, and when she came up to jump, Debbie eased up and wouldn't let her...but she did stick hear head up out of the water to about the back of her gills....her head had to be at least 6" across!!! She rolled, went deep, and as Debbie was getting close to the boat, she ran under the boat, drug the line down the side of the boat, and broke it. Wow, Debbie was sick!!! Anyway, we know there's some big girls in there to catch, so we'll be heading back to see if we can find another soon. Here's a few pics from the day... 

Loaded in and ready to go...





Lunch time!
